After Borboleta, we now dive into another skin. More intimate. Calmer. More immersive. A gathering built around listening, detail and slow movement — between strings, warm textures, deep rhythms and music that unfolds without rushing. On June 13th, Espaço AMIT transforms once again for another ESCAMA night. Line-up: Jonathan Afonso (contemporary folk from Terceira Island, where tradition, emotion and Atlantic identity meet in a raw, intimate take on song); O GAJO (Viola Campaniça, Mediterranean pulse and modern folk straight from Lisbon — a free journey between traditional and urban soundscapes); JLSMOOTH (a deep house vinyl set driven by warm, elegant and hypnotic grooves); and TECHCRICKET (a return to vinyl and to the roots — deep, physical techno shaped between Andorra and Barcelona). Outside the circuit. Inside the island.
